In fact I'd even say that the affiliates that base their decision on what software

who is smart enough to make high volumes sales are also smart enough to
understand that picking sponsors by the software they use isn't the best
strategy to make money......

Don't get me wrong.....we I had a misunderstanding with you before about
your software.....I think NATS is without a shadow of a doubt one of the best
affiliate program software out there....(out of a total of 2 maybe 3 commercial software packages available) I just think that you can't say nats or any other
is THE BEST of all, it depends mostly on what and how the person buying it
is going to use it.....

Nats has TONS of features....probably more than others.....but nobody needs
all of them.....and when you don't need half of them the non used are only
wasted in resources being used for nothing.......

People that need affiliate software should take their decision by analyzing
what software fits best to their requirements....instead of chosing by brand.

The best solution for you isn't necessarily the best for me......but I don't
have to teach you this you know better than me......everyone who just
gets what people suggest they should use on a message board are the ones
that take a lease license and have 100 members tops......and probably go
tits up within the first year.......there's always the odd exception of course
but you get the idea

I understand you may not want to comment on that coz obviously you also
make money on selling lease licenses....nothing wrong with that either.....it's
not your responsibility to make programs successfull other than your own
My program isn't very successful. It exists more so I have a place to test certain new things without screwing up a client and so I can keep a pulse on what is going on in the biz from the program owners point of view. It is a test bed 10 fold more than a money maker.

That said, I don't know why you claim to know how big our clients are and that so many have 100 members tops.

Many affiliates prefer NATS because they can get what they want quickly and easily and they are familiar with it. This will be even more relevant once v4 is released in the coming months.

This goes for big and small affiliates.

I think MPA has done a good job of fixing their image over the past few years and I think their product is improved. I hope they keep improving it as it drives me to make sure NATS stays one step ahead.

As you said and as I said before. Not every peg fits in every hole. My personal feelings aside I'm sure MPA is a better solution for some people. IMO the NATS peg just fits in many more holes comfortably.

To each his own.
